Rabbi at Rozniatow and afterward at Styria; died in 1813. He was the author of the following works: "Ḳeẓot ha-Ḥoshen," a casuistic commentary in two volumes on the Ḥoshen Mishpaṭ of Joseph Caro's Shulḥan 'Aruk, published in 1788 and later; "Abne Millu'im," a similar commentary in two volumes on the Eben ha-'Ezer of the same work (Lemberg, 1815, and Zolkiev, 1825); and "Sheb Shema'tata," novellæ on the Talmud (Lemberg, 1804).
